THE AUDIT
BAYER LEVERKUSEN
Bayer Leverkusen fans have been in for the most productive news imaginable during the foreign break. That said, coach Xabi Alonso has pledged to stay at the club next season. The former Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich midfielder helped Leverkusen take the most sensible place in the Bundesliga through ten editions before defending champions Bayern, the DFB Cup semi-finals and the Europa League quarter-finals. A dream season, set for a fairytale finale.
HOFFENHEIM
Two consecutive league defeats before the break for Hoffenheim seem to condemn them to darkness in mid-table for the rest of the season. Although they are in eighth place lately, seven problems have separated them from the more sensible six of late, a difficult task to succeed in At this level of the campaign, the key for coach Pellegrino Matarazzo will be to keep his team motivated.

PROGNOSIS

Leverkusen is likely to have a dominant performance, so support them to end up earning another 3 points.
